Condit v. Dunne

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• noting that New York’s interest in regulating the conduct of its media “remains even when the target of the statement lives in another state”
• taking judicial notice of news articles as evidence of an alleged “media frenzy” that was described in the complaint
• finding defendant not immune from slander for “literally true” statements where defendant was retelling false and defamatory stories
• finding that “the policy interests of New York and California in having their respective laws applied essentially offset” because “New York has an interest here in applying its laws to the speaker, and California has an interest here in applying its laws to the target”
• taking judicial notice of “widespread publicity” and “media frenzy” and citing cases
• “To determine whether a statement declares or implies a false assertion of fact,” look to “both to the statement itself and to the context in which it was published.”
